Improving Social Skills and Learning Outcomes with Carousel Feedback and Inside Outside Circle Modification Methods

This research aims to improve students' social skills and cognitive learning outcomes in sociology subjects by utilizing the modified Carousel Feedback and Inside Outside Circle methods. This research is classroom action research carried out in two learning cycles. Each cycle consists of planning stages, implementing actions, observing and reflecting. Research data was collected through observation, learning outcomes tests, interviews, questionnaires and documentation studies. The results of this study revealed significant improvements in several aspects. The implementation of learning by teachers increased by 11.25%, while the implementation of learning by students increased by 14.36%. In particular, there was a very striking increase in students' social skills, amounting to 43.54%, and students' cognitive learning outcomes in sociology subjects increased by 60.96%. The implication of this research is that the application of the modified Carousel Feedback and Inside Outside Circle methods can significantly improve students' social skills and cognitive learning outcomes in sociology subjects. This has an important impact because it helps students prepare to face future challenges. With consistent improvements in the implementation of teacher and student learning, as well as substantial improvements in social skills and cognitive learning outcomes, this model is worthy of application in a broader educational context to provide greater benefits for students

The Effect of Ewom on Brand Image and Purchase Intention in the Astro E-grocery Application

Electronic Word of Mouth (eWOM) can be used as a marketing method by companies in developing strategic brands. eWOM communication may have a strong influence on brand image and purchase intention. The rapid growth of social media provides a positive opportunity for companies to approach consumers through eWOM strategies. One of element that influences a person when shopping for daily necessities online or wholesale/e-grocery is e-wom. This paper aims to develop a conceptual framework that provides practical and theoretical insights into e-grocery consumers' use of social media as a promotional tool for electronic word of mouth (eWOM) and its impact on brand image (BI) and purchase intention (PI). Using a quantitative survey method with 26 questions, the questionnaire was distributed via Google Forms to 158 respondents selected based on followers and owners of Astro e-grocery mobile apps located in the Jakarta area and its surroundings using path analysis techniques in Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The finding is that E-WOM significantly affects Purchase Interest with Brand Image as an intervening variable. The results of this research can be applied practically to help company marketing departments and advertising agencies present information according to consumer characteristics to influence purchasing intentions. Theoretical implications can also help further research in analyzing the factors influenced by EWOM

Korelasi Status Gizi, Asupan Natrium, Asupan Serat terhadap Tekanan Darah: A Cross Sectional Study

The aim of this research is to determine the direction and strength of the relationship between nutritional status, sodium intake and fiber intake on systolic and diastolic blood pressure. This type of research is quantitative with a cross-sectional study approach. The research was conducted in November 2020 at the UPT Puskesmas Jombang, South Tangerang City with 100 adult respondents aged 36-45 years who were selected using the Purposive Sampling Technique. Data collection used data analysis tools using the Pearson Correlation test. The results of the correlation test of nutritional status, sodium, and fiber intake on systolic have a p value of 0.096; 0.912; 0.054 and has an r value of 0.162; 0.193; 0.011. The results of the correlation test analysis of nutritional status, sodium and fiber intake on diastole have a p value of 0.058; 0.250; 0.074. Nutritional status, sodium and fiber intake have no correlation with systolic and diastolic blood pressure. More in depth studies at the molecular level are needed to identify in more detail the risk factors for hypertention in the adult group. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui arah dan kekuatan hubungan status gizi, asupan natrium, dan asupan serat terhadap tekanan darah sistolik dan diastolik.
